You don't think that might be because many democrats live together in urban areas where few republicans live?

Thank goodness Fleming not hindered by too many regs during discovery.
The same thing happens in California.
It's called safe districts for minorities. Somehow the left forced states to go out of their way to have minority dominated districts. Now you complain that they are overdoing it. You want your cake and eat it too.
The Constitution gives each state the right to regulate voting. The federal government has no legitimate role in it. Republicans and traditional conservatives have been so intimidated by anything dealing with race that they have done nothing to address this injustice. We can only hope that it will be one of the judicial miscarriages that the Trump Court corrects.
Wrong. Schwarzenegger fixed the districting issues in California. Try again.
No. It is absolutely established you cannot pack districts and unconstitutional in many instances, and creating so called safe districts is abhorrent to a legitimate democracy.
No, you are wrong again. I pointed out California because of the margin of victory. I am not going to spoon-feed you all the variables that go into the issue.

All of the GOP wins are in the fifties, hence they are competitive and not packed. I don’t think you understand how gerrymandering works.
I don't think you understand plain English. Democrats control congressional districting in California. Do you think the Democrats are using gerrymandering against themselves?
I gave you an example where the Democrat winning percentages were much higher than the Republican winning percentages. Can you see how this is one factor that could affect the overall winning percentage in the congressional races yesterday?
You are continuing to embarrass yourself.
